Adapting a homotopy reconstruction theorem for general metric compacta, we show that every countable metric or ultrametric compact space can be topologically reconstructed as the inverse limit of a sequence of finite $T_0$ spaces which are…
An isometry is a geometric transformation that preserves distances between pairs of points. We present methods to classify isometries in the Euclidean plane, and extend these methods to spherical, single elliptical, and hyperbolic geometry.…
In these notes we give a brief introduction to decomposition theory and we summarize some classical and well-known results. The main question is that if a partitioning of a topological space (in other words a decomposition) is given, then…
It is shown that if a non-invertible area preserving local homeomorphism on $\mathbb{T}^2$ is homotopic to a linear expanding or hyperbolic endomorphism, then it must be topologically transitive. This gives a complete characterization, in…
We classify isotopy classes of automorphisms (self-homeomorphisms) of 3-manifolds satisfying the Thurston Geometrization Conjecture. The classification is similar to the classification of automorphisms of surfaces developed by Nielsen and…
The main aim of this paper is to provide a description of neighbourhood operators in finitely complete categories with finite coproducts and a proper factorisation system such that the semilattice of admissible subobjects make a…
Spaces with positive weights are those whose rational homotopy type admits a large family of "rescaling" automorphisms. We show that finite complexes with positive weights have many genuine self-maps. We also fix the proofs of some previous…
We characterize maps between $n$-dimensional N\"obeling manifolds that can be approximated by homeomorphisms.
We prove a categorical duality between a class of abstract algebras of partial functions and a class of (small) topological categories. The algebras are the isomorphs of collections of partial functions closed under the operations of…
A map $f:X\to Y$ between topological spaces is called weakly discontinuous if each subspace $A\subset X$ contains an open dense subspace $U\subset A$ such that the restriction $f|U$ is continuous. A bijective map $f:X\to Y$ between…
The domains of mesh functions are strict subsets of the underlying space of continuous independent variables. Spaces of partial maps between topological spaces admit topologies which do not depend on any metric. Such topologies…
Locales have been studied as "topologies without points", mainly by tools of category theory. While traditional topology presents a space as a set of points with specified neighborhoods, localic topology presents a space as a lattice of…
We study the homotopy theory of locally ordered spaces, that is manifolds with boundary whose charts are partially ordered in a compatible way. Their category is not particularly well-behaved with respect to colimits. However, this category…
A topological space homeomorphic to a self-similar space is demonstrated to be self-similar. There exists a self-similar space $S$ whose coarse graining is homeomorphic to $S$. The coarse graining of $S$ is, therefore, self-similar again.…
We construct a homeomorphism between the compact regular locale of integrals on a Riesz space and the locale of (valuations) on its spectrum. In fact, we construct two geometric theories and show that they are biinterpretable. The…
It is shown that in dimension at least three a local diffeomorphism of Euclidean n-space into itself is injective provided that the pull-back of every plane is a Riemannian submanifold which is conformal to a plane. Using a similar…
A topological space is iso-dense if it has a dense set of isolated points. A topological space is scattered if each of its non-empty subspaces has an isolated point. In $\mathbf{ZF}$, in the absence of the axiom of choice, basic properties…
We study geometric and topological properties of locally compact, geodesically complete spaces with an upper curvature bound. We control the size of singular subsets, discuss homotopical and measure-theoretic stratifications and regularity…
In this paper we give a summary of the comparisons between different definitions of so-called (\infty,1)-categories, which are considered to be models for \infty-categories whose n-morphisms are all invertible for n>1. They are also, from…
We classify the automorphisms of a Moufang hexagon mapping no chamber to an opposite chamber (such automorphisms are called domestic). This forms part of a larger program to classify domestic automorphisms of Moufang spherical buildings.
